Gilding the Lily
Solid Gold Lily Ring with Platinum Detail
Stargazer Lilies were the inspiration for this gold & platinum ring.
Made as a surpirise gift for a lady who adores Lilies, using the customer's scrap gold from old sentimental jewellery.
In our workshop we do many commissions using the customers old gold.
Its a great way to recycle and repurpose, old pieces that may be worn, damaged or simply dated.
When starting a commission like this, its important to have a good source of inspiration. in this case actual flowers would be ideal, but line drawings are great too.
